Lord Qincha's arrival in Fengyang is a big deal. Early in the morning, Governor Lu Zhenfei led the civil and military officials of the city to the pavilion ten miles outside the city to greet him. The Jinyi Guard Yamen was ransacked, and the people and scholars of the whole city were out of a bad breath in their hearts, but they violated the laws of the imperial court, and no one knew what kind of punishment they would receive. There are also civil and military officials in Fengyang, who are even more uneasy in their hearts, lest the city gate catch fire and affect the pond fish.

In the crowd, people kept looking at a white-haired old man, who was surrounded by more than a dozen brocade-clothed slaves, who took care of him attentively and thoughtfully. The gentry in Fengyang City all recognized this old man, and he was clearly the grandfather of Zhang Jizu Zhang Juren, who took the lead in making trouble in the Jinyi Guard Yamen, and the current old man of the Zhang family in Fengyang.

Zhang Jizu was the leader of the attack on the Jinyi Guard's yamen, and at this time he was still under house arrest in the yamen of the inspection department. He was stabbed by Liao Yongtang that day, and his injuries are now healed, but when it comes to this matter, according to the Inspectorate of the Imperial Envoy, the old man of Zhentai had no choice but to leave him in the yamen for the time being, waiting for the court's handling opinions.

Everyone in the world knows that Zhang Shan and Master Zhang are kind and charitable, and they all know that the Zhang family is rich and powerful, and Zhang Shan's cousin was still a high-ranking official in the Wanli Dynasty, and he is not a family without a name in the capital. This time, Lu Zhenfei was ordered to rebuild Fengyang City, and the Zhang family also made great efforts, and his eldest grandson was arrested and sent to prison, but this Zhang Shanzhang master would not sit idly by. The gentry also speculated that Zhang Shan, who had not shown up for a long time, came out of the secluded old mansion this time, and it was estimated that he came to plead with Lord Qincha for the sake of his grandson.

Zhang Yunhan and Wang Pin's brigade arrived in Fengyang at the beginning of the day, and just exchanged a few words with Lu Zhenfei and others, before entering the city, they heard the sound of horses' hooves not far away.

A group of more than fifty cavalrymen in armor galloped in, Lu Zhenfei's face changed, and he was about to get angry, but he caught a glimpse of a leading civil official, and hurriedly accused Zhang Yunhan and Wang Pin, and planned to meet them. But Zhang Yunhan and Wang Pin also saw the person, exchanged glances with each other, and called Lu Zhenfei to stop, and the three of them joined forces to greet him.

The officials and gentry immediately talked about it, and they didn't know who the official who came, but even the envoy and the governor had to go to greet him in person.

But Zhang Shan, who was on the side, was already waiting on the side of the road, waving frequently at the galloping team, and the horse team immediately stopped in front of him.

"Brother Shi, how dare you come and wait in person and kill the foolish brother!" The official dressed in a four-grade civil official robe turned over and dismounted, his movements were clean and neat, and when he approached, he was an old man over 60 years old. Behind him was an old man in a cloth robe about the same age.

Zhang Shan rubbed his eyes, "Isn't it old and dizzy, why is it that even the virtuous brother of Jisheng is here!" ”

The two old men looked at each other and smiled, and saluted Zhang Shan in unison, "If such a big thing happened to the step-ancestor, how can we two old guys sit idly by?" ”

Lu Zhenfei, Wang Pin and Zhang Yunhan had already arrived at the front at this time. Zhang Yunhan secretly complained in his heart, as soon as he arrived in Fengyang, these two old immortals rushed over, don't look at these two people, one is just a political envoy and a senator, and the other is currently dismissed and has become white, but they are both generals in the Donglin party, and their disciples and grandchildren are all over the government and the opposition. As soon as they came, what was originally simple was difficult to do!

Lu Zhenfei is quite familiar with the two of them, and he immediately greeted them as juniors, but his heart is clear. The civil official among the comers was Huang Gongfu, a cadre in the Donglin Party in the past, who was removed from office for impeaching Wei Zhongxian, and after Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, he was employed.

The other is a well-known direct minister and hard bone in the Donglin Party, Chen Zizhuang. used to be a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, and even Chongzhen only called him Mr. and not his name. In the seventh year of Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen planned to hire the virtuous people among the children of the clan, give them officials, and promote them as usual. Chen Zizhuang resolutely opposed it, and did not hesitate to argue with reason in the court, which made Chongzhen Longyan angry, removed from his official position, and was not hired. After this incident, although Chen Zizhuang lost his official position, he had a good reputation in Shilin.

Obviously, the appearance of these two people today is for Zhang Jizu. Zhang Jizu is a rising star of the Donglin Party, and it seems that Zhang Shan and the two of them are also intertwined, so it seems that the case of Jinyiwei will have some more waves out of thin air.

Although Huang Gongfu is a civil official, because he has been in charge of military affairs for many years, he has added the style of many martial artists, and he has always been unapologetic to the eunuchs, for the sake of the Qin Cha, he just bowed respectfully, and said directly: "The old man went to Baoqing to take office, and Chen Jisheng's virtuous brother went south to Guangdong. Qin Cha doesn't have to take care of the two of us, the fair trial is that I will wait in Fengyang for a few days, and then I will leave when the matter is over! ”

Chen Zizhuang didn't speak, just stood beside Zhang Shan, looking at Zhang Yunhan and Wang Pin with a smile.

Zhang Yunhan suddenly had a bitter face, is this a posture that has been around for a few days? Perhaps, if there is a slight difference in the trial of the case, these two will immediately jump out and stir up an earth-shattering scene!

After Huang Gongfu and Chen Zizhuang finished speaking, they stopped staying, and as Zhang Shan went to Zhang's house to rest, he would automatically appear when he wanted to come to try the case.

Zhu Ping'an was in the team, and when he saw the actions of these two people, he couldn't help but feel a little funny. But after thinking about it carefully, I was a little surprised, among these two people, Huang Gongfu was full of loyalty, and in the battle against the Qing army going south, he really fought to the last person, and finally died in Taishan, Guangdong.

Chen Zizhuang, on the other hand, has been waging the struggle against the Qing Dynasty in Fujian and Guangdong. His eldest son, eldest grandson, and second son died in battle, and Chen Zizhuang served as a scholar of the Zhongji Palace, a scholar of the military department, and a governor of the five provinces in the Longwu court, and was finally defeated and captured by the Qing army. The traitor Tong Yangjia threatened Chen Zizhuang with his young son to return to the Qing court, but he sternly refused, Tong Yangjia was so angry that he sawed him to death. Chen Zizhuang's mother heard the bad news of her son's martyrdom and hanged herself in the secluded mountains, and even her concubine Zhang Yuqiao later became the key figure for Li Chengdong to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore his sight again.

These two famous loyal ministers and martyrs in the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty actually appeared in Fengyang together, which surprised Zhu Ping'an, out of admiration for them, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but look at the two of them a few more times, but Huang Gongfu's eyes glanced at it, so that Zhu Ping'an hurriedly lowered his head.

Lu Zhenfei took Wang Pin, Zhang Yunhan, and Yuan Min to the resting place that had been prepared by the governor's yamen. Originally, he planned to invite the three of them, but Zhang Yunhan had no interest in eating and drinking at this time. When he came, Cao Huachun had already told him that Lu Zhenfei would never touch this errand, but the matter of the Jinyi Guard's yamen being impacted must not be lightly revealed.

There is also that Shi Yingzhao is Cao Huachun's party, he died in Fengyang for no reason, Cao Huachun can't ignore it, it is reported that Gao Jianwei commanded Zhu Ping'an to be Lu Zhenfei's party, and he is also the biggest culprit in the death of Shi Yingzhao, this time he can't move Lu Zhenfei, so he will get this Zhu Ping'an down, and if it is not good, he will be removed from his official position, and he will kill Lu Zhenfei's prestige.

Wang Pin still had a cold face. As the new lieutenant guard of Fengyang, he is very clear about the purpose and task of his coming, and he will never mention it in front of Lu Zhenfei and Zhang Yunhan, but as a lieutenant guard of the town, he must participate in the trial of the case.

And Yuan Min is naturally negligible.

Everyone had their own concerns, so they hastily had lunch at the governor's yamen. Zhang Yunhan thought that he wanted a quick solution, so he decided to start the trial the next day.

The location is located in the lobby of the Yamen of the Prosecutor's Office in charge of prisons. Zhang Yunhan sat in the position of chief judge as the chief envoy of Qincha, Yuan Min was second, and Lu Zhenfei and Wang Pin sat at the head of the two as the chief officials of Fengyang. And because the matter involved Jinyiwei, there was no public trial, but all the civil and military officials above the fifth grade in Fengyang were present, and some gentry with official status observed, Zhang Shan was one of them.

Zhang Yunhan looked at the hall, looked around, took a deep breath, no need to ask, Huang Gongfu and Chen Zizhuang, the two old guys, don't know which corner to hide in at this time, if they are not careful, they will jump out, so be cautious.

The trial of the case officially began. The initial stage is to list the human and physical evidence and restore the course of the case on the day. In this way, it was in the afternoon.

When the class opened in the afternoon, Liao Yongtang was brought up, and because he had not yet been convicted, he was only wearing civilian clothes and did not wear shackles and other things.

Zhang Yunhan and Liao Yongtang looked at each other, coughed twice and said: "Liao Yongtang, on August 27, the Jinyi Guard Yamen received an urgent delivery from Fengyang Qianhu, which stated that your department captured a Tartar spy, and according to his confession, Fengyang Gaoqiang Guard commanded Tongzhi Zhu Ping'an to collude with Guanwai and sell military funds, but is there such a thing?" ”

Liao Yongtang's whole person was a little haggard, but he had already received the news that Jinyiwei would be tried together with Dongchang, and he couldn't help but have some hope for his takeover. Over the years, just the worship sent to Cao Huachun's mansion in the capital is not a small amount, and Dongchang is the envoy of the Qincha, doesn't that mean that Cao Huachun wants to meddle in this matter? Therefore, Liao Yongtang resolutely kept silent and insisted on waiting for the arrival of the Qin mission.

"From the face of Lord Qincha, the Tartar spy had indeed confessed that day, and the lower officials had also sent the confession to the Yamen of the command of the Jinyi Guard in Beijing with an urgent delivery. It's just that later, the rebels stormed my Fengyang Thousand Households, and the Tartar spies were beaten to death by the rebels, but there was one less powerful witness. However, Xia Guan suspects that this incident was all instigated by Zhu Ping'an behind his back, and it must have been planned by him, and it was all about killing people and killing people! ”

Lu Zhenfei frowned, turned around and bowed his hand to Zhang Yunhan, "Qin Cha Rongyu, but this matter is strange. On the same day, the official was inspecting the high-walled guard camp, and Zhu Ping'an also reported to the official that he had caught the Tartar spy and asked the official to deal with it on his behalf. At this time, it happened that Liao Yongtang came to visit, but he came for the sake of Tatar's fine work. Jin Yiwei was in charge of investigation, and the official also felt that it was very appropriate to hand over the matter to Jin Yiwei, so he handed over the criminal to Liao Yongtang and took him back to Qianhu for interrogation. Just imagine, if Zhu Ping'an is killing people, then why bother so much, arresting and releasing and killing? ”

Zhang Yunhan snorted, "Lord Lu doesn't have to be in a hurry to defend that Zhu Ping'an, since they have their own opinions, please ask that Lord Zhu Ping'an Zhu to come to the court to explain!" ”
